It's meant for V2 Vehicles only, that's why I put it in this subsection of the site. The value is to compare different mods and their resultant effect on 1/4 mile performance. Since the V1 drivetrain is totally different, it wouldn't necessarily relate. The mod table would have to be modified for the types of mods that are more applicable to the V1 (things like centrifugal blowers, maggies, etc.)

I would prefer to have a list created specifically for V1 vehicles rather than combine the two on one list since the purpose of the list, comparing performance of various modding combos, would not apply. If the purpose was merely to compare the 1/4 mile performance of the V1 and V2, we can already do that by looking at dragtimes.com.

Nice Larry! Congrats on breaking into the 10s with the minimal mods you got.
I am hoping to get better air the next T&T, on the 16th & 17th and get into 5s if possible. Looks like you had no problems hooking up.
What tire pressure did you run at?
